See and yet

Posted by Sphinx on October 21, 2003

 China is now trying to make stronger international links, signing extradition treaties with 40 countries. Since 1993, 210 suspects have been returned to China. But the anti-corruption agreements, including the recent UN agreement on fighting organized crime and money laundering, should see this number rise. The agreements let governments trace money hidden abroad and make it easier to punish officials who have fled overseas.

(the use of 'see' here seems strange to me. COuld you explain it and any other examples?
)
But the fight against corruption is a difficult one. Many countries, including the US, have yet to sign the agreement.
(what does yet mean? and "have yet to do sth.?")

THanks!
